Description for Plymouth Road Runner 1974

As to myself, am not a dealer, ust a (65) year old kid that loves muscle cars. For my work, recently retired from managing a Correctional Facility here in Maine and had worked for the Maine Department of Corrections for (40) years. I am also a respected member of my community. I mention this only because of the value of this car and so that prospective buyers will have some idea as to who they are dealing with. Also, lease check out my eBay feedback which is 100% with (1,130) transactions. To start with, et me first say that I understand that there is a lot of information/photos/video in my ad. I also understand that this may be boring to the person who is just looking and not buying. However, or the person who is looking to buy and spend their hard earned money, feel that there is never too much information or too many photos and videos.

INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ARE WELCOME WITH A DOWN PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL AND THE BALANCE VIA WIRE TRANSFER ONLY.

I ALSO HAVE INTERNATIONAL BUYER REFERENCES FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO CHECK.

Here is a little history on the 1974 Road Runner.

Yes, he Road Runner was based on the cartoon, nd came complete with a horn that went beep beep! And an ad campaign featuring Wiley Coyote. The idea behind the Road Runner had been running around Highland Park for a while, ut management had turned it down. Reportedly, t was eventually produced "despite" management opposition. The Roadrunner was not fragile. Unlike some sports cars (such as the Corvette), t was built for serious street work, hich might be why so many have survived. The Roadrunner was reportedly a favorite of moonshiners, aster than almost any police car and tough enough to take practically any bump, ith good ground clearance to boot.

1974 was the final year for the Belvidere/Satellite-based Road Runner ... in one sense. In 1975, lymouth "downsized" the C-bodyFuryand dropped Belvidere and Satellite. It would be equally valid to say that they merely renamed the B-bodies to Fury. In any case, he appearance of the Plymouth Road Runner changed again, his time matching the1975 Plymouth Fury. 1975 sales, ust over seven thousand, ere a new low point, nd it should come as no surprise that there was no 1976 Road Runner.

The Road Runner package did come back, witching to thePlymouth Volare, ut no sales figures are available for those.

Those who know and appreciate what the Road Runner has meant in the past will be glad to learn that the 1974 Road Runner has lost none of its sporty appeal. Its basic equipment proves it is still a well-put-together performance car with the emphasis upon the basics. There's a standard 318 CID V-8 with dual exhausts and bright chrome exhaust tips. Floor-mounted, ll-synchro-mesh, -speed manual transmission. Front and rear sway bars. Front disc brakes. G70 x 14 raised white-letter tires mounted on Rallye wheels. A performance hood. Heavy-duty springs. Rallye instrument cluster. Special Road Runner Dress-up body stripe and identification. And the distinctive "Beep-Beep" horn lets everyone know it's a Road Runner. And Road Runner has all of these standard Satellite engineering features: Torsion-bar suspension. Unibody construction. And the Electronic Ignition System. It can give you up to 35% more starting voltage than non-electronic systems for fast, onsistent starts. Then team it up with our dependable sporty four-on-the-floor with a Hurst Shifter. Other options to consider for your Road Runner are a Performance Axle Package and a Handling Package. You can make the outside something special, oo. Chrome-styled Road Wheels. Dual Racing Mirrors (chrome or painted). Hood Tape Treatment. Hood Tie-down Pins.

The Road Runner comes with a standard simulated wood-grain Rallye cluster. Switches and controls are located on the left, hile gauges and indicators are on the right. Space is provided for either an optional tachometer or clock.

A true "Time Capsule" , y 4-owner 1974 Plymouth Road Runner is a completely numbers matching "SURVIVOR" car with the original Broadcast Sheet. It is powered by the 318ci V8 and 2BBL carburetor backed up with the A-833 4-speed transmission which as you have seen in my documentation, s a super rare combination. Putting the rubber to the road is the 8¼ Sure-Grip rear axle with a 3.21:1 ratio.

This is a wonderful specimen of a very rare and unmolested Road Runner. Brought up to New England from Virginia in the spring of 2013 after being purchased from the original owner. This fine automobile was originally ordered back in 1974 from "Ted Curry Motors, nc." , Plymouth dealer in Petersburg Virginia. It spent the next 39 years in Boykins Virginia with the original owner. This Road runner was a special order, tripe delete with the vinyl top, true gentleman's Mopar muscle car and believed to make this Road Runner a special order one-of-one car. (Unverified)

This unmolested beauty has all the original documents, rom the original window sticker and bill of sale, ven the original owner's first registration, irginia Title (copy), irginia antique license plate and more. At the time of original purchase minor modifications were done at the Plymouth dealership before leaving the lot. These were good additions and included wheel opening moldings and front and rear bumper guards. The original owner mentioned to the second owner that in the fall of 1974 he also had aftermarket A/C added at the local dealership.

The car starts, uns and drives perfectly, ith the heavy-duty suspension, ront and rear sway bars, t feels very firm and solid without any squeaks or rattles and goes down the road like it did back in 1974. The car has no leaks and does not leave drops of fluid or stains on the floor below. All interior and exterior lights work. This Road Runner still retains most of its original paint, ll of its original body panels and all of the original interior. Very dependable and enjoyable, nd an absolute pleasure to drive. This car has been very well maintained, ith a recent coolant flush, ynthetic oil change, lutch adjustment kit and spring and new filters. I have confidence in its absolute excellent reliability and drivability.

This is simply a no excuses, icked nice and super rare Mopar and I urge any perspective buyer to look at all of the photos and the video and decide for themselves whether this is what they want and need.

Exterior: This "Special Order" stripe delete with vinyl roof 1974 Plymouth Road Runner has what is believed to be (Based on the information passed on from the three previous owners to me.) the original EW1 Spinnaker White paint which holds an excellent shine. (I did clean up some small rock chips at the bottom of driver's side front fender near the door and had those small areas repainted with the correct Spinnaker White paint, ut that was it.) The Road Runner is sporting the J54 Power-Bulge Hood and all of the original rust free body panels. All panels have excellent fit, aps and alignment. The car is solid top to bottom. The light gold vinyl top was replaced in 2007 and done right with a factory style fit and is in excellent condition. All the stainless trim, oldings, nd chrome are in very good condition including the dealer installed wheel well moldings. The fourteen inch Argent painted Rally Wheels with chrome hubs are in great shape, ith new later period radial white letter tires. All of the glass is original (I am not sure about the windshield.) and is clear and blemish free. However, hen driving the Road Runner today, did see a small chip in the exterior part of the windshield near the center.

Interior: The original light gold bucket seat interior is in excellent shape, rom the headliner to the dash and rear deck, ll are near perfect. The original carpet is extra clean and not showing much of any wear, ith minimal fading it is in overall great original condition. The door panels and rear side panels are all original and in excellent like new condition. Note that this is an RM21 2-door coupe and it comes with fixed quarter windows. (The rear windows do not go down and there are no window cranks.) The seats front and rear are in fabulous original condition, lthough there is a small puncture on the front passenger bucket seat, hich is barely noticeable. The center console is completely intact and extra clean with no fading or cracks. The center console compartment door opens and closes as it should. The Hurst Pistol-Grip four speed shifter is clean and in near perfect condition. The Hurst heavy duty, -Speed manual transmission shifts smoothly through the gears with ease. The Rallye gauge instrument cluster is super clean and blemish free, ll of the lenses are clear, nd the instruments functioning properly. The original factory wood grain steering wheel is well preserved and in excellent condition. The odometer currently reads 44,207 original documented miles. This is a non-smoker car,the interior smells like a new car, o musty old car odor that you tend to find in older cars. To the best of my knowledge every switch, nob and lever operates correctly. All lights work (dash, ack-up warning light, igh beam, ow beam, linkers, ack up lights, ide markers, rake lights fender mounted blinkers). The speedometer, as gauge, emperature gauge, mp gauge, igarette lighter, eep-Beep Horn, ipers, eater and defrost are functioning properly. The original AM radio operates as new, he station selector panel and preset push buttons all work as they should.I was told that the A/C blows cold but unless I am doing something wrong, t does not seem to be blowing cold air.

Engine: Original 318 engine block, eads, ntake, arburetor, istributor, ir cleaner assembly and wiper motor. Dealer installed York A/C pump. The original numbers matching drivetrain has never been apart or modified in any way. Mechanically the 318 motor purrs like a kitten, ou can barely hear it run. Plenty of power.

Trunk: The trunk pan is rust free and rock solid original. The trunk has the original jack and tools, pare tire, riginal trunk mat and jack instruction decal.

Undercarriage: The undercarriage of the car is solid and rust free. The frame rails and floors are all rust free and rock solid original. It still retains the original number's matching A-833 4-speed manual transmission and the original (never apart) 10-bolt 7¼ Sure-Grip rear axle with a 3.21:1 ratio. It has excellent front end, ront disk brakes, hocks and a newer low-restriction dual exhaust system with factory chrome Machine Gun exhaust tips
